Part of situation: DOJ and DHS actions over California noncitizen voter claims (11 clusters)

California election officials face DOJ lawsuit over suspected noncitizen voters

Operation Protect the Vote voter fraud noncitizen voting California elections Department of Justice

The U.S. Department of Justice has charged 28 green card holders in California with election-related crimes, including fraudulent voter registration and making false statements on naturalization applications. This action is part of “Operation Protect the Vote,” a federal initiative aimed at identifying noncitizens on voter rolls ahead of the November 3 midterm elections.

In a related legal escalation, the Justice Department filed an emergency request for a temporary restraining order to compel California to segregate up to 20,000 ballots identified as belonging to “likely noncitizens.” Federal officials claim these individuals may have been sent mail-in ballots despite being ineligible to vote.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta has dismissed the litigation as a “reckless political stunt,” arguing that the 28 charged individuals represent only 0.0001% of the state’s 23 million registered voters. State and local officials in Los Angeles County have challenged the reliability of the federal list, noting that a preliminary review of a sample suggested some individuals on the list may actually be U.S.-born citizens.
